Oooh

I sometimes lose my faith in luck

I don't know what I want to be when I grow up

I just count the rain

Wearing the floor through the boards again

I wish I could find a soul to steal

I could be the engine, you could be the wheel

When we're driving home, I never have to worry about being alone

Oooh, follow my tracks

See all the times I should have turned back

Oooh, I wept alone

I know what it means to be on my own

Oooh, the things I have known

Looks like I'm taking the hard way home

Oooh, the seeds I've sown

Taking the hard way home

Taking the hard way home

I never did learn how to follow the rules

I never was good at sleeping while the moon was full

I just lie and burn

Wreck my mind while the planet turns

I sometimes wish I could start again

I'd try and do the right things every now and then

I'd step in line

That's what I would do if I could turn back time

Oooh, follow my tracks

See all the times I should have turned back

Oooh, I wept alone

I know what it means to be on my own

Oooh, the things I have known

Looks like I'm taking the hard way home

Oooh, the seeds I've sown

Taking the hard way home

Taking the hard way home

Oh

I tell you how I want to live

Forget about the take

Forget about the give

I want to leave this town

Fake my death and never be found

Oooh, follow my tracks

See all the times I should have turned back

Oooh, I wept alone

I know what it means to be on my own

Oooh, the things I have known

Looks like I'm taking the hard way home

Oooh, the seeds I've sown

Taking the hard way home

Taking the hard way home

I sometimes lose my faith in luck

I don't know what I want to be when I grow up

I just count the rain

Wearing the floor through the boards again

I wish I could find a soul to steal

I could be the engine, you could be the wheel

When we're driving home, I never have to worry about being alone

Oooh, the things I have known

Looks like I'm taking the hard way home

Oooh, the seeds I've sown

Taking the hard way home

Taking the hard way home

Taking the hard way home
